Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Season chicken breasts with salt and pepper.
  2. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear chicken until golden brown on both sides to lock in juices.
  3. Add minced garlic and squash to the skillet and sauté for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  4. Pour milk over the chicken and add fresh thyme sprigs. Bring to a gentle simmer, then reduce heat to low. Cover and cook for 20 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through (internal temperature of 165°F/74°C).
  5. Remove thyme sprigs before serving. Serve hot with additional sautéed squash and a generous drizzle of the creamy milk sauce.
